Bois d'Armenie לעומת Ambre Sultan

Bois d'Armenie is widely praised by the r/fragrance community as a beautiful, masterfully crafted fragrance with a unique resinous benzoin character perfect for autumn. However, the community recognizes its discontinuation stems from high pricing and niche appeal, with strong enthusiasm tempered by frustration over its unavailability and the broader trend of Guerlain discontinuing beloved fragrances from their premium L'Art & La Matière line.

Ambre Sultan is a divisive fragrance with a bold, spicy amber character that appeals to niche fragrance enthusiasts seeking non-vanilla options. However, its prominent spice accords and savory qualities are polarizing, with some finding them poorly blended or unpleasant, and it often loses out in direct comparisons to alternatives like L'Air du Desert Marocain.
